"Sin City 2" Bombs at Box Office, "Guardians of the Galaxy" Smashing Records

After years of requests from fans, "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" finally hit theaters. Unfortunately, the film landed in eighth place at the domestic box office with $6.5 million. The first movie earned almost $30 million during its opening weekend, back in 2005.

The original "Sin City" cost $40 million to make. The studio wouldn't reveal how much "Sin City 2" cost. The sequel has a 44% fresh rating on RottenTomatoes. "We never expected this level of rejection. It's like the ice bucket challenge without the good cause, and is a major disappointment," said The Weinstein Company.

Meanwhile, "Guardians of the Galaxy" reclaimed the top spot with another $17.6 million, bringing its domestic total to $251.9 million. That makes it the second highest-grossing film of the year in North America, surpassing "Transformers: Age of Extinction" ($243.3 million). It will soon take the record, when it passes "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" ($259.8 million).

Chloe Moretz's "If I Stay" ended up in third place. The new film was expected to win the weekend with at least $18 million, but only took $16.8 million. Since it cost $11 million to make, it's already a hit. "If I Stay" has a 41% fresh rating.

The other wide release of the weekend was the football drama "When the Game Stands Tall," starring Jim Caviezel. It landed in fifth place with $9 million. Pretty decent result for a movie that cost $15 million to make. It has an 18% fresh rating.

Youre right but I dont see why its true. Hes a decent actor. No Country and odly enough, Old Boy. Cant stand Spike but his version of Old Boy worked well with Brolin. I enjoyed it despite not wanting too.

Ive heard that from a few people. Pretty much the same story as the Korean version, which I thought was really good. Maybe I didnt like it as much as I think, but it seems like more because I was expecting to hate it but I really feel like it was a decent film. I will agree that Copley wasnt right for the part. On the subject of Copley, am I the only one that feels like he made Elysium watchable?
